And this is the confidence we have in Him,
that if we ask anything according to His Will, He hears us.
1 John 5:14
Holy God,
Lord, You are our inheritance, our portion for those who believe on You. In these days when we must hold onto our hope more tightly than ever, may we remember that You are not only the source of our hope, You are also the reason for our hope. In You we put our trust, Lord, for You are good to those who wait upon You. You reward those who earnestly seek You. May the God of our salvation be exalted both now and forever more.
Lord God, on this day when we honor mothers, we thank You for the privilege of motherhood. Thank You for the love of mothers everywhere, for they bring glory and honor to You each time they comfort their children and every opportunity they take to share Jesus’ love and faithfulness with them. We love You for the comfort You bring us, Precious Lord, and we bless You for being our Comforter forever.
Lord, the enemies of America seem to be bolder than ever and we cry out to You for help. We know that we cannot fight this battle without You, for You are our Banner and Shield, our Defender and Avenger. We ask You to protect our nation from its destruction by those who hate us----both those in other countries as well as those within America. We pray that America would forever stand with Israel and that there would be many blessings that will come out of our support. May the borders of both countries be firmly established, honored, and defended.
Thank You, Lord, for our country. In spite of our disobedience, You continue to bless us with loving kindness and tender mercies. We ask for You to lead us to repentance and to help each of us to return to the center of Your will. Father, all our woes are caused by our turning away from You. Our wounds are self-inflicted. We have remained silent as freedom after freedom has been stripped from us. Help Your church to rise up and defend our Constitution and the liberties that so many have fought to preserve. Help us to return to You, Father, for the sake of our children and grandchildren. Help us to boldly proclaim Your Name and Your truth throughout this land.
Lord, we ask for Your wisdom, guidance and protection for President Trump, Vice-President Vance, the cabinet members, and the judiciary. Protect our men in women in uniform, Father, as our nation deals with volatile situations both at home and throughout the world. Thank You for those who are signing up to serve. May You reward their willingness to help our nation and others.
Be exalted, O God, in Your own strength, and may we sing and praise Your Name, both now and evermore. Thank You for preparing an eternal home for all who belong to You. We bless Your mighty works in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

Psalm 32
Of David. A Maskil.
1 Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven,
whose sin is covered.
2 Happy are those to whom the Lord imputes no iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 While I kept silence, my body wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
4 For day and night your hand was heavy upon me;
my strength was dried up* as by the heat of summer.
Selah
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not hide my iniquity;
I said, ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord’,
and you forgave the guilt of my sin.
Selah
6 Therefore let all who are faithful
offer prayer to you;
at a time of distress,* the rush of mighty waters
shall not reach them.
7 You are a hiding-place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with glad cries of deliverance.
Selah
8 I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go;
I will counsel you with my eye upon you.
9 Do not be like a horse or a mule, without understanding,
whose temper must be curbed with bit and bridle,
else it will not stay near you.
10 Many are the torments of the wicked,
but steadfast love surrounds those who trust in the Lord.
11 Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, O righteous,
and shout for joy, all you upright in heart.
Amen
Amen to your prayers for our nation. Lord Jesus, thank you for hearing our prayers!

Thank You, Lord, for being the Lord of the Second Chance, not willing that any of us perish, but come to repentance.
In Jesus Name

Sunday of the Paralytic (Orthodox)

Troparion
Let the heavens rejoice, / let the earth be glad, / for the Lord has shown strength with His arm. / He has trampled down death by death. / He has become the first born of the dead. / He has delivered us from the depths of hell, / and has granted to the world / great mercy.
Kontakion
(Podoben: “Today the Virgin...”
By Your divine authority, O Lord, / as You raised up the paralytic of old, / so raise up my soul, paralyzed by sundry sins and unseemly acts; / so that being saved I may cry: / “Glory to Your power, O compassionate Christ!”
Blessed Mother’s Day!
Amen
Thank-you, Amen!
